About this School
Harding University is located in Searcy, Arkansas, in the United States, an hour north-east of Little Rock. It is a private liberal arts Christian university associated with the Church of Christ. The school was founded in 1924 as Harding College in Morrilton, Arkansas and moved a decade later to the campus of the defunct Galloway Women's College in Searcy. Today, the University contains 44 buildings. Seventeen degrees are offered, which include nine Bachelor's degrees, seven master's degrees and a degree in therapy. The student body of 5,975 students represents forty nine states and forty five foreign countries. University rules forbid smoking on campus, drugs and drinking (on or off campus), and sexual intercourse outside of wedlock. Men and women are not allowed in each others' dorm rooms. Bible courses and chapel attendance are mandatory for students. Harding University also operates a graduate school of religion in Memphis, Tennessee, Camp Tahkodah, and Harding Academy. The latter is located in Searcy and should not be confused with Harding Academy in Memphis, though both have ties to the Church of Christ.
